Remarkable Community

Maybe it's the soothing sound of the waves lapping the shoreline of Storm Lake, or the warmth emanating from the red brick buildings that dot campus, or the welcoming feel of our lush green 60-acre landscape. Or maybe it's just something in the faces of the people you meet on campus. Whatever the cause, there's no doubt about the result. BVU is a remarkable community... and we're not just saying that.

Talk to our alumni and they'll tell you that the relationships they forged with faculty, staff, and other students here played a key part in their success at BVU and after. They'll tell you that even after graduation, no matter where in the world they've ended up (and they are all over), they feel the support, encouragement, and camaraderie of the BVU community.

It starts with a smile and a “hi” on your first visit to campus and goes way beyond. Students and faculty who know you, staff members in the cafeteria, bookstore, department offices who call you by name –know your birthday too. More than likely, even President Fred Moore will recognize you and stop to chat and maybe even have lunch with you. One thing is true... there is no option for anonymity here. Be prepared to be known, to belong, and to contribute.
